The clean-up operation in a rural West Auckland community has begun after it was hit hard on Tuesday by flooding.
Locals in Kumeū returned to their homes and businesses on Wednesday morning to see what damage the flooding had caused and what they could start cleaning up to return.
Making the operation more difficult for both locals and authorities is the fact Auckland remains in Alert Level 4 due to the current Delta outbreak of Covid-19 in the community.
This has left many affected businesses unable to bring in reinforcements outside of their bubble to help clean the mess up.
Here are some early pictures from the clean-up process underway.
